Can We Get A Hard Mode Level Farm
Right now in the game to get a character to level 40 it is just a massive drag it takes actual ages and honestly isnt fun in the slightest. i understand that they cant make you just be able to super farm everything to level 40 instantly bc then everyone will be MR 30 in a day or so but can we please have a hard mode mission that will increase the XP gain so when we dont have to spend actual days trying to forma someone 4 times

Edit: if anyone knows better XP farms than the defense mission that are out or the wave missions please drop them in the comments but to my knowledge those are the best ones currently in the game. im MR 16 so i have spent mad time doing those and would really just like a way to not have to spend my entire day farming what is honestly the most boring mission in the game on repeat

Days? Takes me not even an hour to go from 1 to 40. There are 3 good exp spots in the game. One of which you have to grind if you want python, and the other gives you void shards.

even if there are some that can get you up in an hour which im not entirely sure which spots your talking about thats still a long time if i want to change the polarity of 3 spots on my character thats an entire days session of the game right there

i think it would just be nice maybe they could drop a spot in hard mode that we can max level in 20 mins warframe has tons of spots in there game where they just let u max level in like 1 min im not asking for anything that crazy tho i just dont want to spend my entire day doing actually the most boring content in the game just to level up a character

I mean, granted it will still take a day depending on how many you want to do, but sadly that is one o the core parts of the game, and the general idea is you level them up as you farm.
I find it annoying and tedious too, but its not as bad as you think especially since I did it while farming the spots for the blueprints I needed and I still did not get one of them, so now I am doing my second descendant and resetting him back to back while I farm plus since I am doing it in Echo Swamp, you also have a chance to drop the Catalyst from doing all waves.

Maybe not be a jack***, and just ask them what missions they are talking about?

i know its a part of the game but once you hit hard mode i truly believe there should be a faster option available for you

a few hours is a long time especially when you got like 4 characters your need to level up and especially when you need to build a character like sitting there after the second time you changed the polarity of something and you are on your like 4 hours of playing a defense mission is mad boring

Thing is... They took the whole system of "forma for slots and having to re-level again each time" from Warframe, but decided to drag it out needlessly. In Warframe, it takes around 5-10 minutes to get a warframe/weapon from 0 to 30. Which is fast and only slightly slows you down, keeping the gameplay flowing.

Here, it takes an hour(or more). Which feels like an absolute snoozefest. That's just not great, considering another fact - to fully min-max your char/weapon, you'll definitely need to do it 6-8 times here for each, while in Warframe in some cases 2-3 is more than enough already for a finalized build.

I have no words ... I'm just baffled by "I want everything to be done in 5 seconds" mentality. If you don't like grinding this game is NOT for you, because grinding in this game is it's core.

brother you are fighting demons i literally said i didnt want it to be a few seconds just i want it faster than it is currently im MR 16 i have over 100 hours in the game i farmed out Ult Bunny. i am simply pointing out that this level farming is ridiculous and once you hit hard mode they should add a way to do it faster than a "few hours"

you can like a game and also criticize parts of it that are not good no game is perfect

exactly i dont really want it to take just a few minutes but make a mode where i can get to max level in like 20 mins instead of an hour or more it just takes so long especially when i got other things in the game i want to do this feels like it just stops everything and make me do genuinely the most boring game mode in the game for what doesnt even feel like a real pay off you dont get any new items just xp and slow xp at that

The thing is people forget warframe is like 10 years old and at this point its a old mechanic, Hence why forma/potatos are more or less given away and they have super high xp grind spots.

When the game was newer it was the same thing where you had to run a number of missions for a few hours each forma. But as the game went on and the core playerbase mainly stayed about stock piling mats a lot of the OG craft items and mechanics moved onto being less of a core mechanic. They didnt wanna remove it so they just made it a breeze to do since there is 10 years of other content to also being doing that is more relevant.

what are you talking about it is literally a main mechanic of that game you cant make a build that can live in stealpath with out formas they just figured out that the grind sucked so they made it so that once you complete the star chart you can farm them out way faster
